In a left turn from a two way street onto a one way street, which lane should you enter?

  1. Right lane

  2. Left lane

  3. Both lanes

  4. Center lane

The correct answer is: Left lane

When making a left turn from a two way street onto a one way street, it is important to enter the left lane. This ensures that you are turning into the lane closest to the center of the road and you can complete the turn safely. Option A is incorrect because the right lane would take you into oncoming traffic. Option C, entering both lanes, is not a safe or legal option as it would disrupt the flow of traffic and could potentially cause an accident. Option D, entering the center lane, is also incorrect as this lane may not exist or may be designated for other traffic movements. Therefore, entering the left lane is the only safe and legal option when making a left turn onto a one way street.
